As a junior FO and after the reserve period, would it be possible to get days off in a row like six or seven at some point during the month rather than doing 4on/2off, 4on/2off thru the whole month?- As a junior FO, it would be difficult at best. Being junior, you'll be looking at lines with 11 or 12 days off. Even with trip trading, with so few days off it'd be hard to line up that many days off. You probably could line up 5+ days off in a row, but at the expense of having 1 day off in between trips the rest of the month.
As far as you can tell is it possible to pick up dropped time and extra trips to get 100 hours of credit at all?-Yes, if you're willing to work OT it's definitely possible to credit 100 hours or more
I would like to be based in DFW (Im 40, ATP, 8000TT, mostly turbine) would it be realistic for me to expect DFW in the 175? DFW 175 FO is well staffed at this point in time. They've still been hiring into it, but I would imagine that's going to stop any second now. Plan to see a lot of hiring into the 175 in ORD.
Thanks so much for your time.
